Thema: Trifive.com member in Germany! (Gelesen 3175 mal)

Thanks for the "English Spoken" thread ....I tried to send some private messages out ; but not sure if they made it out.

I am on travel in Germany from the USA and would like to meet up with some Tri-Chevy members and/or car shows this Friday or Saturday. I am currently west of Mannheim, GE and will be flying out this Sunday from Frankfurt. I have a rental car so I can drive about; limited only by the time in the day.

So, if anyone is available or knows of a show let me know. I see there is one up in Kiel and in Berlin, but I think that is a stretch. if you know of a member, give them a shout or pm. I will be staying in Landstuhl, GE at the hotel until I get positive contact that someone can meet me or let me know where a show is. postal codes work in the cars GPS; I don't do so well in spelling the cities Trifive.com Members met:http://www.trifive.com/forums/album.php?albumid=885

First car I rented back in May-June was a dog... Nissan Quastha (sp?), July-Aug I rented a Peugeot 508 SW and it was fairly fast. Now I have a family version of the Golf and it takes a lot of time to get to 140 kph.

I am going to try to make it to Kiel to see the Tri Five Chevy Family.... it will be worth the travel.

All I need now is the address, postal code for GPS and the times. I am going to head out Friday, I just need to know when and where to go......

That's the funny thing with rentals... when I spent vacations in the USA, they always wanted to give me a Japanese car...And don't understand, that I refuse, and ask for a Chevy... (Was the 2010 Camaro on Christmas.. )Unfortunally, here in Germany they don't know much about customer care, but they give you something more "Funny", if you go on their nerves... ;-)

The good thing: Yes, there are 2 meetings tomorrow... the one in Kiel is the annual Meeting of this Board... And the other one near Berlin is on "Castle Diedersdorf"... where I think I'll take a look, if the rain here ever stops...

we would love to have you in Kiel, but would understand, if you decide to go to Berlin.......here is the adress for the TriFive meeting in Kiel (actually is close to Kiel .....10 miles away from Kiel) just in case you are using a navigation device while you drive : Street name : Kronsberg 27 Town : Altenholz-Klausdorf........ the navigation device should "eat" just Altenholz or use the Zip Code 24161

If you need further informations call me until tonight on my land line +49 40 8701867 or cell +49 172 4104261 I live in Hamburg will be on my way on Saturday morning.

If you need assistance to find a hotel in Hamburg (form here itÂ´s only a 1 hour 15 minutes drive) let me know and we find something......

Thanks for the info. If I need assistance along the way, I will call you and see if you can advise.I am not making as much progress in leaving as I thought, so need to get on the road. I should be in Kiel area by 8-9pm tonight.

I will have to leave Saturday; early evening and drive to Frankfurt to catch plan on Sunday.

Sunday: Eindhoven, Tiburg, Breda ... (I only know these town names because Hans (townsman0) drove me all over The Netherlands once. I think we had a 12 hour day and he had to drive from the coast to Eindhoven. It was after midnight and he probably didn't get any sleep before going to work. I was a great time!!)\

Monday: Head Belgium Antwerp, Brussel and Mons.

Let me know if you are available..

I will check my messages in the morning. Not sure if I will get wifi to check during the day.
